GFS stills has Showers for Tonight.

About a tenth of an inch or less for us on the coast.  Good chance we won't see it here in town thanks to having our backs on a south slope.  Still, keep an eye out for the rest of today, tonight and Tuesday morning.  You could have a wet commute, especially on west facing coast lines and over the mountain pass.  If you are up in the Sierra this weekend, you might be enjoying some snow showers.  Snow could fall down below 8000 feet in some of the colder squalls.  Could be quite wet otherwise.  Maybe Tuesday will be a powder day at Carson Pass.  Not that uncommon for late May in the Sierra, but after such a dry 2013 it is a little shocking.  The nice thing about this storm is that we finally have a break from the winds.  Expect clouds and fog to linger today.  When they do break, expect that wind to pick up considerably.  And it is chilly out.  Barely 60F.  But things look up for the week ahead.


Looking into the sun as we get buzzed on West Cliff.

Tuesday should look like this morning.  Fog/cloud mix with a chance of showers.  Sunny in the afternoon with some luck. Mid 60s with a breeze when the sun pops out.  Another band could move through Wednesday, so NOAA is calling for a slight chance of rain.  My guess is it will be too far north to get us wet, but we should have a day with light winds.  Maybe a slight on shore sea breeze in the afternoon.  By Thursday, another gradient sets up over us.  Sun and wind is to be expected.  Low 70s by Friday.  As we head into the weekend, the core of that gradient looks to shift north, off the Mendocino coast, so light morning off shores could be the call, with moderate afternoon NW breezes.   With some luck the marine layer won't move in on us and we could see temps moving into the mid to upper 70s for Saturday.  Slight bit cooler on Sunday.  Looks like a great first weekend of June.
